Fan Gets Criticized For “Cringey” And “Embarrassing” Interaction With TXT’s Yeonjun

The moment went viral.

TXT is on their North American tour at the moment, which means that fans have been getting the sweetest interactions with the boys during send-offs. Many cute moments stemmed from the send-off sessions, including Yeonjun with a small child…

…and friendly hugs that made MOAs days.

One fan took things a little too far with their choice in what to say to him. As send-offs are time-crunched, fans can only squeeze in a sentence or two in between getting their items autographed. This particular fan chose to ask him a question that has been going viral on social media recently. Stemming from the lyrics of Tinashe’s “Nasty”, teens on social media have been trending the phrase “match [one’s] freak.”

The fan in question chose to ask him, “are you going to match my freak?” Yeonjun’s smile drops quickly, and a longer version of the interaction showed that he began randomly singing instead.

Other MOAs called them out for the “cringey” and “embarrassing” moment.

 

Although it was probably an innocuous reenactment of a trending phrase or meme, other fans fairly pointed out that the meme probably has yet to reach South Korea.

The moment has gone viral with over 80,000 views at the point of writing. The fan has since deleted their original video and tweet.
